Music video by Hot Water Music performing Drag My Body. 2012 Rise Records - เพลง
My mom just died. All that's getting me through is 1) my father, 2) medical MJ, & 3) all the bands my mom let me explore & grow with as a kid. Eighteen years later & I still turn to HWM for succor. Can't stop crying, but I can at least try to drown my wussy tears out with perfect music. RIP, best mom ever.
Sorry to hear. Hang in there, friend. :)
Damn, this made me tear up. I lost my ma when I was 14. She allowed me the freedoms to explore and express myself at an early age so I can certainly understand the sentiments you feel towards your mom. Hang in there. It does get easier.
+Dave Brady I'm honestly touched, sincerely, that you guys cared enough about a stranger's tribulations & pains to share personal anecdotes & general well-wishes. I sincerely hope it gets better, man. It's been about a month now & I still randomly stop whatever at home/work & think, 'oh shit, mom'd get a kick outta this! I ought to text her to tell...tell no one.' I'm sorry you lost yours so young, dude. Fourteen, that's just unfair. If nothing else, we could form the coolest support group ever. Share tales of our favorite mom foods we shall never savour again, debate about whether or not Blake sold out & the general radness of Jawbreaker, HWM, Lawrence Arms, etc. End with a hug, no deities forced on anyone. I'm about 33% kidding. As I tapped this out, it began seeming less ridiculous the further I got.
tl;dr version: Thx dudes. Right now, I'll gladly take love & support from all angles. TH-cam can be a vitriolic, dark place...but then you get moments like this. Peace & mercy, friends.
M Haley Bro, that sounds like an extremely rad idea. I know I would be a part of it on a regular basis. A group that gets togethger to talk about any and everything, to play games if anyone is into that sort of thing, to bring instruments and jam together, or letting the more experienced musicians teach the beginners. Getting your mind off the effects and aftermath of losing a close friend or loved one is paramount to keeping one's sanity. It is essential. It does take a fair amount of time to properly heal, although it is never healed 100%. Teaching others how to cope and live with traumatic events. Maybe even taking group trips would be a good bonding experience. Man, the more I think about it, the more fun it sounds like. I'm so glad I can use my own experience to possibly help others throughout the learning to cope process. Thank you for YOUR kind words. And you are absolutely correct, good sir. TH-cam, and every other social media, can be an extremely harsh, unforgiving, and even dangerous place. Not to mention all the negative things you hear and all the negative people. There are tons of assholes all around us. It's nice to see that there are good people out there. But for real, keep your head up, and keep those good memories going. One day, the sadness from thinking about her will turn into smiles when you think about her. Keep in touch, bro, and if you ever have any questions or just want/need someone to talk to that's been there, I am available to you, 24/7. Look me up and friend request me on Facebook if you want to. My number, if you ever want to talk or text, is (217)-820-1159. Much love, brother. :)
+Dave Brady +Spudski Ok, dudes...I just got your reply notification, Dave. I'm feeling this. I hate organized grief counselling, 12-step shit, all that. I'm fine with it existing; if it works for a body, more power to him. Just not my thing. When I posted my first comment, I regretted it immediately. I rarely post on YT, period. I was WAY up in my feelings when I posted it. I thought 'ok, just delete it ya dummy.' But then +Spudski replied, and a day later, you did too, +Dave Brady. It kinda fucked me up, y'know? I fully expected stuff more like 'aw, cool story bro. I'm banging ur ded ma w/my giant peen0r rite now LULZ!' But no...two people who don't know me from Adam--all three of us initially only having a shared love for HWM--spoke out to me. You guys dunno what it meant to think, 'man, these guys empathize AND know this pain! How can it be? Serendipity? Random happenstance? I don't care. I'm ready to be more...er, "e-extroverted?"
I am gonna go against my better judgment again, as with the 1st post, and push for this. Does YT even have personal messaging anymore? If I can't get that sussed out (I'm lame, forgive me), I'm just gonna post my twitter and/or MS handle (same for both).
Bear with me, dudes. I feel like this is not only workable, but also potentially awesome. -Love, Peace, & Dave Pirner's hair grease :-)
That bass fill at 1:20 is pure magic...
xox
This album actually dropped on a Tuesday (May 15, 2012).
8 days later, I almost lost my dominant hand to a horrendous work accident.
I lose a finger.
Get ELEVEN staples. FORTY THREE stitches. And FIVE HOURS of emergency surgery.
I spend 10 days in special containment, having leeches on my body, 24-7, trying to stimulate blood flow.
Over the first 9 days, I managed just 26 hours of sleep.
Accidentally, I watched my surgeon strip my fingers to the bone while he clipped them off.
It was.. traumatizing. I never got a second of mental health support, despite everything, and the first month home was agony.
But the entire time, my nurses encouraged music.
And I played this album so damn much, the plays were legit hundreds on every single song.
12 years later, I remember how it felt, just to drag my body to learn how to feed myself, to write my name, to enjoy what I missed for what felt like forever.
Without the help of my co-workers and those first responders, I might have died from the shock of what happened.
This album, no exaggeration necessary, helped me live again.
When I was leaving the hospital for the last time, I insisted we stop by the record store. I bought the green translucent vinyl, and it remains my post revered piece of music anything.
Holy shit dude I'm sorry that happened and I'm glad you are alive!
I never get tired of listen to this band, to this song! It was my official soundtrack when I left Brazil to come to USA. I´m an odd person, have no father, use a walking cane and got Cancer really young, but listen to this: "Take a step to begin again, After all we can only do our best." Really helps me on daily basis! Thanks HWM!!!
You're totally awesome, bro.
Davison Carvalho Much respect!
Davison Carvalho
Slainte!
may you live a long healthy life
all the best for u man!
Hot Water Music, such an underrated band
This is one of those rare times where the video engrossed me so much that I actually forgot to listen to the song, then replayed it with my eyes closed. Both the video and the song are incredible. Those feels, man
Same reaction, but the combo of the lyrics and the video never fail to make me cry!
I've just found this song like 2 yrs ago, and every time I watch the video, I'm too busy crying to pay attention to the lyrics.
@@smashtactics1I completely forget the lyrics when I watch the video.
In a perfect world, THIS would be mainstream.
Then again, in a perfect world, the word "mainstream" wouldn't exist.
Why did I read the beginning of this comment in the tune of perfect world by simple plan 😂😂😂
Such a powerful video backed up by an equally powerful song. I've never been moved by a music video before, this video deserves so much respect.
One of the saddest music videos I've ever watched makes me tear up every time
ME TOO! they are good at plucking heart-strings as well as guitar/bass strings!
I was not prepared for the amount of sad in that video.
right?
Yeah, watched it again after many years and I must have got something in both eyes cause I'm tearing up a bit.
A punch like that right in the feelings...
Been suffering from a horrible illness, that was misdiagnosed for 3 and a half years I’ve been depressed and suffering and just got the word: it’s cancer.
I got in my car and blasted this on repeat for the ride home
всё будет хорошо, брат
So I love Hot Water Music, and have been listening to them for a while. I love this song especially. But I had never seen the music video until today. And WOW this music video really touched me. It had such a powerful plot. You really don't see rock music videos like this nowadays (if at all), not since the nineties. Way to go.
The Gaslight Anthem's "Handwritten" is another example (with an honorable mention to the Menzinger's "After the Party"). Man do I love Chuck Ragan and Brian Fallon.
Tears roll down my face every time I watch Rise Against's vid for (They Said) Help Is On The Way (but it never came) th-cam.com/video/JHiqGqoIGII/w-d-xo.html. It came out after Hurricane Katrina wiped out Louisiana and Bush never sent in FEMA until the media started cutting him up for it.
I saw a band called Red City Radio in Houston a few nights ago. I had never heard of them before. They reminded me so much of HWM that I kept referring to them as Red City Music. They have the same kinda sound going on. I like to call it country punk. Love it. Keep on rockin guys.
they are great and great people. i saw them in my town and me and my friend just stood there chatting forever and they remembered my friend from 2 years back. all around real people who care about their fans.
It's actually a legitimate genre :) it's called Folk Punk :D you should listen to Frank Turner, or Tim McIlrath's solo stuff, if you like HWM
i saw them in austin opening for a wilhelm scream.
Hey man! just wanted to say thanks for mentioning Red City Radio just checked them out and they are pretty good so in return id like to reccommend Fire Whiskey. They are a santa cruz native band that arent around anymore but they are solid. You can find them on spotify. cd is called hold fast. they have a few songs on youtube. rolling stoned and bar fly. check em out!
+Gable Mullen Red City Radio is awesome man! This coming a year later haha but they are one of my favorites! So raw.
эта песня со мной уже много лет. спасибо, парни. каждый раз когда смотрю видео, эмоции переполняют.
Тоже самое
Been a fan of Hot Water Music since 1998. they've been with me through thick and thin. Parents passing ,overcoming addiction. hot water music has always been there to help me get through the day! thank you Chuck, chris, jason, and george!!
The bass in this song is just next level
I picked up the album for this song.... And was blown away by How amazing the entire albums is. Keep up the good work guys
If this ain't in your top songs of all time, your list ain't complete.
Just saw this video for the first time and cannot believe the emotion I felt watching it. Such a great band.
Cheers if you have been loving this band 15+ years! Chicago fan here who remembers seeing Alkaline Trio among others open for this amazing band. Respect owed/deserved to HWM for all you young kids out there!!!!
Amazing song. Great video. Once I heard this song, I had to listen to it 20 times in a row. I can feel it in my body. Love his voice. Melody, bass, guitar, drums.. all is combined for the perfect song I swear.
Hot Water Music better than ever!!! HANDS UP!!!
my favorite band since 1998! Forever and counting got me through the toughest time of my life..
Fallon and Ragan are probably the best American guys out there. They are treasures of American music.
This band has saved my mlife time after time. Amazing how they've progressed. I don't think they'll save me this time though. I'm tired. i'm really tired and i can relate to this song. to a degree. TY guys for being you. Yall gave a buncha shirts and stuff out for us to mrs farrell back in the day and i still have them
+Ying Chee hey friend how come? being tired it's a part of being alive! Keep at it I can promise on my children's life it's worth it. Never give up my friend! I can't possibly know what's going on with you but trust me keep fighting and it will pay off!
I hope you’re still here with us but i also understand if you’re not. I get it. Your comment hits home, I’m tired too.
It's been a while but I hope I get an answer, how are you?
Hope you're doing alright man.
I just found this song randomly in the Iheart app, and it hit home so hard it almost made me cry, he has a great voice can't believe I found them till today 2015
Welcome to the party. You should also check out Leatherface; they're HWM's big brother band.
+KnifeParty If you like this, you may like Chuck Ragans solo stuff. Check it out!
Still one of the greatest songs ever written
I love the lead's voice... such an amazing song, i never get tired of it.
I cannot watch this video without crying
some people drink coffee in the morning I listen to drag my body and state of grace first thing every morning.
I fucking love those songs
That bass line is sexy.
LOVE your screenname:)
Caroline Carpenter
Thanks! You a FT fan?
Great tune...and Plain Sailing Weather...bet you can fuck up every god damn thing...ha ha!
John Smith
Hahaha I sure can!
yeah nice tune make me dance follow the beat bass
Even though I don't you, somehow I just know that there is someone who loves you very much and you mean the world to them :)
The fact this comment hasn't had one like in 7 years makes my heart hurt. May peace and honour be with you friend.
Seriously... Why this comment? Found em through an old BMX magazine. They have never let me down, I recommend to everyone that enjoys this drive. HWM breathes life into my soul when I'm all but dried up and defeated. GAINESVILLE = HOT WATER MUSIC!! "Gainesville didn't exist to me before HWM so y'all put your city on my map!!!
My father showed this to me and made me cry.
Great job man.
hot water and gaslight, no better music around!! thanks for keeping music real guys
i must of listened to this song atleast 75 times tonight, soooo good i dont want it to stop
Well I got my heart up in a beautiful mess,
I should've known better when I took the risk,
To wreck myself and to gamble while broke,
Shaking something mental at a loss for the words I'd once known.
I traded two steps forward for three steps back,
To get to know the meaning of showing respect.
I found the pedestals and burned them down,
To kill my idols and to bury the thoughts underground.
I'm no longer deaf to the sounds.
I'm hardly feeling human anymore,
Enough to drag my body from the floor.
Well I got my head up in a critical mess,
Fighting like a demon in a shell I possess.
Gnashing my teeth and speaking in tongues,
Still shaking something mental at a loss for the words I'd once known.
Something's rattling my bones.
I'm hardly feeling human anymore,
Enough to drag my body from the floor.
I'm hardly feeling human anymore,
Enough to drag my body from the floor.
Stand to hold steady now,
Take a breath and somehow,
Take a step to begin again,
After all we can only do our best.
I'm hardly feeling human anymore,
Enough to drag my body from the floor.
I'm hardly feeling human anymore,
Enough to drag my body from the floor.
Stand and hold steady now.
Chuck Ragan is my favorite artist, I love his music. Most of the time when I try finding the lyrics to his songs they seem incorrect. Thanks for saving me the search. Have a great life : )
1:20 That bass...
Jason Black rocks my world!
***** And the drum fill that goes perfectly along with it. Such a good song.
@@rastamouse7861 BASS GOD
Check out the song "Trademark" for the sexiest bass line ever.
WOW!!! Talk about a moving song tugging on your heart strings... Well Done!!!.... WELL DONE 👏
this is by far the best unknown band ever. and approximately 1.000.000 times better than the highly over rated foo fighters
chuck ragan
they have been around for a long time---one of my favs
completely agree
Gave a thumb but cant knock foo's
Such an amazing song and video
I was about to give up and then I saw HWM live thanks to some very good friends and well, here I am.
Edit: this band just hits all my heart strings, reminds me that the world is still ok.
I heard the song for the first time a few months ago and I've been listening to it ever since. I love the raw sound and the feeling the song gives me.
